Introducing Rome

To say that Rome is a historic city would be something of an understatement. It's hard to express in words the wonder instilled by the monuments and structures dating back to antiquity – it’s a city that needs to be experienced in the flesh. The piazzas are the most striking landmarks of the city - they’re the heart of Rome, with ornate fountains and statues bringing them to life. The city itself is like an open-air museum, but don’t let that stop you visiting Rome’s archaeology and art museums, cathedrals and churches. And of course you have to try the food at every opportunity. As your vision and imagination are captured by the sights before you, your taste buds will be equally enraptured. It’s this feast for the senses which make Rome an unforgettable experience.
